Your village is calling. They've lost their idiot.
LOL!
I have a cat that molts when you look at him..
*chuckle*
My dog was rather good at not shedding all over the furniture.
However, when she was covered in mud, wetfrom rain, or blanketed with burrs she'd rub against the couch.
My sis in law has a golden, they are lovey puppies! However, we nicknamed him baby hugie because he doesn't realize how big and powerful he is and will knock you down when trying to greet you!
I'll stick with collies, and agree they are really smart...
Bump
Research shows my dog understands the word, 'DUH', too.
The dog I had growing up, a mutt, was the exact same way. You couldn't spell the word 'walk' without him going nuts. He was the same way with the word Moped. I would take him for rides on my Spree (what a site to see!) and I couldn't say or spell the word without him heading to the actual moped to get ready. Riding on the moped was his favorite thing in the world...
The big shepard across the street was trained to never go beyond the periphery of his yard and I NEVER saw him elsewhere until I heard my runaway puppy crying at my door. When I opened the door, there was my puppy laying on his back, frozen in fear. The wonderful shepard was standing over him. Puppy never ran away again!!
Hey now, dogs are usually cute. ;)
Does the salted gas grenade show any signs of this?
I had a neighbor with a standard poodle. Smartest dog I ever saw. I could tell it to go get a hat and it would look all over the house until it found a hat and brought it back to me. Same thing with slippers, socks, balls, bones, dollys, etc. It make it more amazing, it could distinguish between slippers and shoes or you could say caps or hats and the dog knew you meant the same thing. Also if you asked for a slipper or a hat it would bring you one, but if you asked for slippers or hats, it would bring you two. To make it all the more interesting, a complete stranger could tell this to the dog and the dog would understand the words, so it was not the tone or inflection of the words spoken by the dog's owner. It seemed to me the dog actually understood the meaning of the word itself.
Aside from some crippling allergies, among other things, she doesn't seem to have much of a problem dealing with him. Though it is stressing her out a little bit.
Personally, I like her hamster a lot more.
My friend's dog, named "Stupid", just took a whirlwind ride through a 48" culvert. Yup, came out breech. That's STUPID!
I can't use the word swim without my golden freaking out. If I happen to open a car door with him outside, he's in the car giving me the "look".
Dog stories on FR. Has it gotten kinder and gentler here? I didn't think so.
My dog is a genius
I could tell you stories but I don't want to make other dog owners feel bad :>)
Border Collie bump!
Omigawd... they're freaking ADORABLE -- ! :)
We're pretty sure he knows what "Dear God almighty, what's that smell?" means.
The dog I own now is so sagacious that he can actually unwind himself from a post, patiently going around and around until he's free. I've never seen a dog that could do that kind of thing. It's amazing, because in order to get what he wants he actually has to move away from the the object he's seeking. That, to my mind, requires some kind of foresight.
